Slowey & the Boats are pioneers of Philadelphia’s Hawaiian jazz scene. A five-piece instrumental concern, S&TB deftly blend elements of traditional folk melodies, western swing, ballads, tangos, and Hawaiian party classics – and all before you’ve finished your first Mai Tai. Their music has something for everyone – young, old, cool, uptight.
"Slowey and the Boats’ passion seeps into everything, causing them, and us, to beam..."
-Philadelphia City Paper
"The instrumental music that Slowey and the Boats creates is pure fun through and through."
-Fred Knittel, WXPN Folkadelphia
"Slowey and the Boats provided the perfect mood for a perfect night. Most of my guests were musicians and every single one of them was blown away. They're a unique band for a magical, memorable night!"
-Maria Taylor, former member of Bright Eyes
